How long does it take to learn carving?

Traditional: During the 3 years of being an apprentice, the apprentice can only learn the craft without being paid. All the money earned must be given to the master. Starting from the fourth year, he can only get 50% of the salary. During this period, you not only need to learn craftsmanship, but also learn processes and design art. It takes eight or nine years for a good wood carving master to become a master, or even longer. Today's young people are not willing to endure this hardship, nor can they bear this loneliness.

You'd better find a master to ask. It's almost impossible to see formal schools teaching this. However, few courses in product design courses in some schools include this.

It will take longer to figure it out on your own. It is recommended to learn the basics of art first. First of all, you must have good modeling skills. It depends on whether you have talent.

In particular, the masters have their own methods to ensure accurate modeling. good luck.
